Brook + Whittle executive vice-president Andy Johnson said: “The addition of LLT Labels will strengthen our platform and deliver value for our customers.

“LLT Labels is known for their exceptional customer service, focus on print quality and talented workforce.

“Furthermore, the custom label products that LLT Labels produces will expand Brook + Whittle’s product offering, particularly in the custom warehouse and shipping label category.”

Brook + Whittle provides pressure-sensitive labels, shrink sleeves, heat transfer labels and flexible packaging, operating 17 production facilities across the US.

The company focuses on sustainable packaging, complex decoration, digitalisation and ‘industry-leading’ lead-times.

In May last year, it acquired Diamond Flexible Packaging, a flexible packaging firm based in Northbrook, Illinois.

Diamond supplies customised printed bags and pouches for a broad range of end markets, including food, cosmetics, nutrition, beverage and healthcare.

The acquisition was intended to enhance Brook + Whittle’s wide web printing capabilities and fuel the company’s growth in its main strategic markets.

It came after Brook + Whittle acquired custom label manufacturer Paradigm Label in January last year.

Based in Mira Loma, California, Paradigm Label focuses on supplying flexible packaging, pressure-sensitive labels and shrink sleeves.
